RACHEL JESIEN - Priestess of Avalon, Yoga Therapist, Ceremonialist
Born a natural Seeress and Oracle, Rachel's work bridges the physical and spiritual realms to facilitate healing on all levels. Her Shamanic Priestess path spans over 15 years and has woven its spiral around the world many times, studying Shamanism in Australia, Peru, Ireland, and most recently she completed a three year Priestess of Avalon initiation within the Glastonbury Goddess Temple, rooted in the Celtic Isles, traditional land of her ancestors. Rachel believes that all suffering stems from our disconnection from our Earth Mother and Her natural rhythms, and by bringing ancient traditions alive in the modern world, we can find our way back to our true purpose as the Earth's guardians. Rachel provides spiritual mentoring to a global community through Shamanic Healing Sessions, New & Full Moon Ceremonies, Sacred Pilgrimage, and Priest/ess Trainings throughout the year at the River Valley Goddess Temple in Croton on Hudson, NY, traditional lands of the Kitchawanc people. She is also a medical intuitive and backcare & scoliosis yoga therapist who has been able to heal her severe scoliosis through a specialized home yoga therapy practice.
EMILY BARRY - Priestess of the Valley & the Stars
Emily Barry is a Priestess of the River Valley in the Avalon tradition at the River Valley Goddess Temple. Emily began her spiritual journey after discovering yoga over 10 years ago. In 2016, she completed her 200 hour teacher training with Brahmani Liebman and Jashoda Edmunds at the Kripalu Center in Lenox, MA. She has studied 250 hours of Integrative Yoga Therapy at the Kripalu Center with Joseph Le Page.
Her spiritual journey guided her to reflect on her own personal trauma, where she discovered her inner power and wisdom. This transformation allowed her to embrace her path as a healer. Emily uses several modalities to guide others to healing, including yoga, herbal medicine, astrology, sacred sexuality, as well as oracle cards for channeling messages. She is ready to help others transform their pain into power. Your strengths, gifts, and soul’s true potential are hidden just below the surface. Emily wants to guide you on your healing journey to uncovering and harnessing your unique potential and gifts.
